Uplifted Apes

Ha! I've escaped to the South like so many snowbirds! I only see snow on TV now! And I'm thinking I'll wear shorts and cook out on New Years this year!
 
However it was done, Chimpanzees, Gorillas, and Orangutangs were uplifted. And this thread has made me wonder if perhaps some of them found a planet of their own, and what it evolved into. (I don't recall when this uplift took place?)

Say that some of them decided they wanted a world of their own. Of course they would have wanted one each, but let's assume that this wasn't feasible and they wound up with representatives of all three species being sent to the same world. I very much doubt that they would use the "Planet of the Apes" as a model for the structure of their society (Although the movies may well be regarded as wonderful farces). But how would they organize themselves? And how would that society had evolved? And where would the world they wound up on be located?

Any ideas?

Sounds a bit like the Ylii, from 2300 AD.
